WHY LAW?

I chose law, because, I enjoy reading, writing, and analyzing. It also allows you to be an innovator, and requires creative thinking to problem solve. It’s intellectually demanding and stimulating, and fulfilling.

Also, my art history background allowed me to develop skills useful in law. For example, in art history, I learned to “read and analyze” images in its context (style, genre etc) and conceptualizing its relationship with the artist, viewers, and society in general. This translates into my law practice, as i can utilize these skills to help people solve their problems/issues.
